We’ve got a familiar face on the site today — Ilana Glazer! The mom of a 2-and-half-year-old sat down to chat with Scary Mommy about therapy and parenting, flipping her breech baby… creatively, and her new movie, Babes. Plus she said maybe the truest thing I’ve ever heard about toddlers: “Babies are so high needs but without the personality. With toddlers, there’s all this reasoning, and you can’t reason with someone who’s extremely drunk. You can’t reason with them! They’re all feeling.”

Amen to that.

“I was a stay-at-home mom for six years before my sudden separation left me scrambling to pick up the pieces with a 5- and 1-year-old.

She got through it — and today, she’s sharing her best advice.
